Love 'em?  Hate 'em?  I am in the former group, much to the dismay of my cardiologist.  Some of my local gastro pubs sell them hot and freshly fried.  They make a nice app or simply a nosh with a brew.  Commercial bagged ones have really grown in quality.  I swap in some kicked up flavors from time to time but these are my go to.

Huge fan.

The best I have had are from Swig n Swine with the Tabasco and honey sauce and blue cheese crumbles.

A couple of my favorites...but haven't had any since 2019 as I work on improving my diet.

They are always referred to as  chicharrones here in South Texas. I've seen them offered in tacos and I ordered one once and it was horrible, just mush. I hear in Central America they are served moist, one at a time on a platter to the wealthy.

I like those too. My wife likes the Pineapple Ancho chili ones they make.

I've never had moist, mushy pork rinds...half of the fun is the crunch.  Doesn't sound like I'm missing anything.
